Mechanical Inspection: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1997 Volkswagen Passat. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION: DO NOT use ignition switch during compression tests. Use a remote starter to crank engine. Fuel injectors are triggered by ignition switch during cranking mode, which can create a fire hazard or contaminate the engine's oiling system.
